I did, but I noticed in the dmesg that attempt to launch VM give some
'mismatch error' which made me to think that not all components are in
sync.

Actually, when I re-installed virtualbox-ose, I've noticed that the
old 3.2.x config was active and then I did issue: make config and
re-installed.

Ahh, OK. This makes life easier...The web site says: "VirtualBox 4.0.8
Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack All platforms" so I thought it
should work on FreeBSD as well.


Strange thing is that VueScan recognizes my Epson scanner (connected
via USB) when using Ubuntu under VM, but not under WinXP VM...


Sincerely,
Gour
